The seven husbands ➕ the seven wives is equal to 14 people.

The seven families have seven children each... So, 7 ☓ 7 = 49 + 14 = 63.


QED!

After several thoughts, I feel the answer is 112.

Seven husbands and seven wives
That's 14
Seven children each from seven husbands is equal to 49
Seven children each from seven wives is equal to 49
49 + 49 = 98
98 + 14 = 112

The men and their children 7 x 7 = 49

The wives and their children 7 x 7 = 49


49 + 49 = 98

The number of persons is 357.

Solution:

7 men + 7 wives = 14

Number of children for each man and each wife = 7
Number of children for each man with the seven wives = 7×7 = 49
Number of children for the seven men and the seven wives = 49 × 7 = 343

Total number of persons = 14 + 343 = 357.
